angular velocity ω
|
angle swept out / time
rad/s |
|
linear velocity, v
|
rω
radius X angular velocity |
|
centripetal force
|
the force acting towards the centre, that keeps an object moving in a circle
F = mrω^2 = mv^2/ r mass, radius, angular velocity, linear velocity |
|
centripetal acceleration
|
the acceleration acting towards the centre of a body moving in a circle
a= rω^2 |
|
derivation of Keppler's Law T^2 ∝R^3
|
v= d/t
v= 2πR/T........4π^2R^2/T^2 = v^2 (equation 1) GMm/R^2 = mv^2/R (rearrange) v^2 = GM/R (equation 2) 4π^2R^3/T^2 = GM/R.... T^2= 4π^2R^3/GM T^2 ∝ R^3 |
|
derivation of v = rω
|
linear velocity = d/t
1 rev, vel = 2πR/T v= RX 2π/T (where ω = 2π/T for 1 rev) v=rω |
|
Hookes Law
|
the restoring force is proportional to the extension of the spring (provided the elastic limit is not exceeded)
F is proportional to S F = -KS |
|
a body is said to be moving with simple harmonic motion if...
|
a) its acceleration is directly proportional to its distance from a fixed point on its path
b) its acceleration is always directed towards that point |
|
equation for simple harmonic motion
|
- ω^2S
|
|
to show that any object that obeys hooke's law will execute SHM
|
F = -KS a= - ω^2S
ma= -KS a= -K/M XS -K/M = ω^2 a = - ω^2S |
|
what is the period and amplitude of a pendulum
|
Period, T = 2π√l/g
amplitude= maximum displacement |
